Develop the fire-case control matrix

Formally approve the fire-case control matrix for detectors, dampers, actuators, and suppression equipment before construction.

Starting point

• Fire-case control logic often exists only in tables without a link to MEP devices in the model.
• Without formal matrix approval, execution lacks binding safety logic.

Goal & benefit

• Maintain the matrix for detectors, dampers, actuators, and suppression bindingly.
• Approve safety logic before construction, separate from the architecture fire concept.

Process

1. Provide the MEP model with detectors, dampers, actuators, and suppression equipment.
2. Develop the fire-case control matrix and align it with fire planning and MEP.
3. Formally approve the matrix as the basis for execution.

Outcome

• Formally approved fire-case control matrix as the basis for MEP execution.

Deliverables

• Fire-case control matrix
• MEP model with IfcProject, IfcSite, IfcBuilding, and IfcBuildingStorey
• IfcAlarm, IfcSensor, IfcActuator, IfcDamper, IfcFireSuppressionTerminal, and IfcSwitchingDevice
• No additional control attributes - matrix as the process deliverable
